Hi All,
So I had my tesla home charger fitted a few months ago. It was done by Mr Charger, recommended via tesla.
All fitted, job well done. About a month or two later i got a call from a random company telling me they need to check the electricity supply to my house to ensure I am getting enough to supply the car charger. I seem to be, I get 20 odd miles per hour of charge. I was informed the service is free, and any work required is also free. Some sort of government initiative.
Anyhow, this was months ago, and this morning I get a call telling me they have a visit planned for today. I'm not in but the missus is, he visits and tells us the house needs a cable upgrade from the mains. Means my drive needs digging up etc - explains everything is put back how it was before. Problem is my Leccy box is under the stairs, and they are not digging up my newly tiles house floor.
My question is, is this normal? My house was fine before the charger, has been fine since installation, everything works normally. Why do i need an upgrade and has anyone else had this "offer"?
